Chapter 249: Uproar / Wave (4)
On the seventh day of the third month of the seventeenth year of Zhenguan, it was the day of the great dynasty, although the sky was gloomy, the rain did not rain, and it was uncomfortable, but the courtiers gathered in the court room early, waiting for the arrival of the time of the court, and the ministers and workers talked comfortably together according to the distance and distance, the topic was nothing more than the wind and snow, but it also seemed peaceful, but if you have the intention to observe, you can find that many ministers' faces are full of eager to try, it is no wonder, Well-informed courtiers all know that today is the day when the case of the impeachment of the seven crimes of the Yue King Zhang Qi is decided, whether it is for Li Zhen or against, after so many days of gearing up, they are all ready to go to the palace to perform, but some to the surprise of the ministers - in the past, the most fierce opponent of the Yue King Li Zhen Situ Changsun Wuji has not seen his face, this will be the time of the last dynasty, but the eldest grandson Wuji is still no news, neither anyone came, nor heard that he asked for leave, It really made a bunch of courtiers think about it.
"Yo, Lord Situ is here." Just when a group of courtiers were secretly speculating, the eldest grandson Wuji walked into the court room with a light face, and the sharp-eyed household servant Su Miao took the lead in greeting him and greeted him very politely.
"Oh, it's Su Shilang, it's early." Eldest Sun Wuji naturally knew Su Miao's background, and he was not rude because he was just a squire, but he didn't want to be more polite with him, nodded with a smile, said hello, and planned to step aside, but he never thought that Su Miao looked old, but his legs and feet were very fast, and he took a step first, which happened to block the direction of Changsun Wuji's progress, so that Changsun Wuji had to stop.
"Lord Situ, it's raining so hard these days, hehe, it's very tidal, and the lower officials heard that Lord Changsun has had another leg disease recently, I don't know if it's better?" Su Miao bowed slightly and greeted with concern.
The eldest grandson Wuji is fat, high blood pressure, coupled with the fact that he did not pay attention to maintenance when he was young, he fell ill when he was riding a horse and hunting, a pair of old cold legs, and always get sick every rainy day, although it is not too serious, but the inconvenience is inevitable, this article of the Manchu Dynasty has long been known, but it is not a secret, at this time, I heard Su Miao look like a cold and warm question, although the eldest grandson Wuji was extremely unwilling to have anything to do with the people of Li Tai, the king of Wei, but it was not good to face each other coldly, but he responded indifferently: "There is Lao Su Shilang worried, The old man's illness is all in the emperor's calendar, and it is not a big deal. As soon as the words fell, he was about to walk away with a slight side, but he didn't expect Su Miao to take the lead again to block the way of the eldest grandson Wuji, this back and forth, even if the eldest grandson Wuji was well-cultivated, he couldn't help but be a little annoyed, although he didn't get angry, but his face looked a little impatient.
As if he hadn't seen the displeasure on the face of the eldest grandson Situ, Su Miao continued with a smile: "Lord Situ, Xiaguan got a home remedy a few days ago, saying that it is very effective for leg diseases, hehe, don't hide it from Lord Situ, Xiaguan's legs were originally not very sharp, after using this recipe, it really worked, and when I turned around, Xiaguan asked people to send it to Lord Situ, you might as well give it a try, maybe you can see the results." ”
The so-called stretching out his hand and not hitting the smiling person, even if the eldest grandson Wuji was impatient in his heart, when he heard this, he had to smile and nod and said: "Thank you Su Shilang for this, the old man admits his feelings." ”
"It should be, it should be, Lord Situ works hard for the country, and it is an honor for the lower officials to help Lord Situ share his worries, hehe, the lower officials think that the disease must be treated early, and it must be treated thoroughly, otherwise if there is a root of the disease, once the disease is really committed in the future, it will be a fatal thing, does Lord Situ think so?" Su Miao looked like he was talking about things and said with a smile.
What kind of person is the eldest grandson Wuji, how can he not hear the words hidden in Su Miao's words, he knows that Su Miao's this is going to join forces with him, and completely bring down Li Zhen's "root disease", to be honest, if there is an opportunity to completely bury Li Zhen, the eldest grandson Wuji will never let it go, after all, the feud between the eldest grandson family and Li Zhen is already a dead knot, and only if one party completely falls can it be regarded as a game, this eldest grandson Wuji is like a mirror in his heart, As for whether to join forces with King Wei or even King Wu for this matter, in fact, Changsun Wuji doesn't care, but Changsun Wuji knows better - don't look at the menacing impeachment, but it will not be able to completely knock down Li Zhen, without him, if Li Shimin really intends to punish Li Zhen again, he would have released the wind a long time ago, instead of being as silent as now, in Changsun Wuji's view, this impeachment is destined to be thunder and rain, and the punishment that really falls on Li Zhen's head will not be too big. Wei Shuangwang's people and horses are too outrageous, maybe it will arouse Li Shimin's disgust, that is the real cheap Li Zhen, but it is a pity that this matter is clear in the heart of the eldest grandson Wuji, but he can't declare it, at this time, seeing Su Miao's intentions, he can't help but be a little disappointed, but it's not good to say anything, just smiled indifferently and said: "Good, however, the old man knows that the disease comes like a mountain, and the disease goes like a thread, and the treatment is a disease, and he can't be in a hurry, hehe, he can't be in a hurry." ”
Su Miao can become the chief strategist of Li Tai, the king of Wei, since he is not an ordinary person, obedient and listening, he immediately understood the meaning of the eldest grandson Wuji, and his heart suddenly moved, just thinking about saying something more, but he heard a tight "Shangchao" sound from the direction of the Taiji Palace, and in desperation, he could only arch his hand to the eldest grandson Wuji and said: "I have been taught." After that, he hurriedly walked to the courtiers who were lining up and followed the flow of people towards the Taiji Palace.
"The emperor has arrived!" As the voice of the inner eunuch Liu Donghe sounded, Li Shimin led the crown prince Li Zhi to walk out slowly from behind the Taiji Palace, and the courtiers in the hall immediately all knelt on the ground and shouted long live.
Li Shimin walked to the dragon chair in the middle of the hall with a calm face and sat down, glanced at the crown prince Li Zhi, who was seated almost at the same time, and then raised his hand in a weak voice, and said in a calm voice: "All the ministers are exempt from courtesy." ”
"Long live thanks!" All the ministers thanked them according to the custom, each got up, divided into papers, martial arts, and clans stood in a number of columns, and before the ministers and workers stood firm, they saw a person in the civil official queue, holding the jade gui, (the upper part is sharp and the lower end is straight, the flake jade is used for the courtiers to see the pilgrimage, but it is not popular since the Han Dynasty, in the early Tang Dynasty, for the revival of ancient rites, Taizu and Taizong had made a batch of gifts to the courtiers, but there are few courtiers to use, only the people of the Yushitai often impeach the ministers with the upper bullet seal, which is called Gui's advice. Walked to the front of the palace, knelt on the ground, and said loudly: "Your Majesty, the minister supervises the imperial history Zhang Qi has something to play Your Majesty, the last day, the minister has been on the bullet seal, impeachment of the seven major sins of misconduct of the king of Yue, the court has not been resolved for a long time, but the government and the opposition have discussed a lot, Guozijian and Chongwenguan have all moved for this, and the people's grievances are extremely heavy, and the minister implores His Majesty to investigate thoroughly to calm the people's hearts." ”
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that what Zhang Yushi said is very true, the king of Yue is arrogant and domineering, changing the military system without authorization, messing with the law of my court, abusing and killing women and children, damaging the prestige of my court, setting up military schools without permission, cultivating private troops, his heart is unpredictable, privately accepting the prince and daughter of Qiuzi, not following the laws of the Tang Dynasty, colluding with the enemy country, his actions are strange, all kinds of measures, violating the laws of the Tang Dynasty, if he is not severely punished, what is the prestige of the court, the outline is often bad, the court is in danger, it seems that this evil behavior is especially more than what Qi did back then, Your Majesty must not ignore it!" As soon as Zhang Qi's voice fell, Xiao Long, the servant of the Criminal Department, immediately stood up and echoed loudly.
Supervising the imperial history Zhang Qi is a member of King Wu's line, and Xiao Long, the servant of the Criminal Department, is a figure of King Wei's faction, although these two are not high-ranking officials, but the background is not simple, the two of them came forward, and those middle and lower-level officials who had already colluded in advance immediately poured out twenty or thirty people, all of them were shouting and beating, everyone opened Tang Law, closed the court system, and bit Li Zhen to death, and its momentum was so fierce that Li Zhen was knocked to the ground in one breath, and then labeled as a traitor. The core ministers of the Wei Shuangwang were all silent, and neither Su Xuan, Ye Ling, Qin Wenwen, nor Yan Liben and others stood up to express their position.
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Zhang Yushi and others are all nonsense, purely alarmist, since ancient times, those who are jealous of the virtuous and the capable are not as good as it." In the midst of a group of shouts, another minister in the civil official queue dressed in the costume of supervising the imperial history stood up and unceremoniously degraded Zhang Qi and others, this person is the new imperial historian Lin Zhengcheng, but this person is not an official of Li Zhen's family, or even a Guan Long noble, but was promoted to the court through the imperial examinationAt this time, seeing that he rashly came forward for Li Zhen, everyone was surprised, and couldn't help but secretly guess whether this son's actions were out of holy will, and for a while, no one came forward to scold him for some misconduct in his words.
"Your Majesty, what Lin Yushi said the minister does not dare to agree, the minister is dedicated to the country, how can he be jealous of the virtuous and jealous, the minister implores His Majesty to investigate."
"Your Majesty, Lin Yushi's rebellious words are out of character, and it is a great crime of disrespect!"
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Lin Yushi has said something false, but he must have something that is not false, the minister is ignorant, he doesn't know what is false, what is not false, and the ministers are willing to hear his high opinions."
……
The courtiers were basically from the noble families of Guanlong, and they didn't look down on those officials who were promoted to the imperial court because of the imperial examination, but at this time, they heard Lin Zhengcheng's harsh words, and immediately attacked them.
Li Zhen's merits and demerits Li Shimin has his own account in his heart, the only thing that he doesn't dare to make a conclusion is only Li Zhen's heart, but after so many days of thinking, it can be regarded as a general understanding, I was going to discuss other government affairs first, and finally decide on the case of Li Zhen's seven crimes, but I didn't expect that he hadn't had time to agree on a tone for the court, and a group of courtiers made trouble first, and they were in a displeased, at this time, seeing the ministers making a lot of noise, they were even more impatient, but it was not good to punish them, so they could only frown and wave their hands, stopped the courtiers' chaotic discussions, looked at Lin Zhengcheng and said, "Lin Aiqing, what do you think about the matter outside the Saiwai, you might as well come and listen to me." ”
Lin Zhengcheng came from a humble background, and relied on hard study to enter the official career through the imperial examination, however, the reason why he could afford to read books was because Li Zhen vigorously promoted printing technology and greatly reduced the price of books, so although he had never intersected with Li Zhen, he had always admired Li Zhen's personality. He kowtowed respectfully to Li Shimin and said: "Your Majesty, the minister is a literati and does not know martial arts, but the minister has read history and knows that the champion Hou Huo Gong went to the old story of the Xiongnu expedition, thinking that Huo Gong went out with 800 horsemen, except for the surprise attack, the chickens and dogs were not left where he passed, and he took the enemy's baggage for his own use, so that he was able to sweep the desert and establish a great reputation, but there were few people he killed?" Why don't you see Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty condemned because of this, and why don't you see the cruelty that people condemn at the time? One of these ministers is unknown. As for the private acceptance of the prince of Qiuci is even more rare, it must be known that the original intention of King Yue's move was just to stabilize the king of Qiuci and not to make it cause chaos, however, this strategy did not work, the battle of Anxi, the country of Qiuci came to the end or sent an army to attack my Tang Dynasty, if it was not for His Royal Highness the King of Yue to deal with it properly and completely defeat the army of Qiuci, how could it be such a brilliant victory? The second minister is not clear, the sand thieves are willing to abandon the darkness and help our Tang army defeat the enemy, what is wrong, do you have to squeeze it out to the Western Turkic side? Moreover, the minister thought that the matter of the sand thieves had already been reported to the court, so how could he privately accept the sand thieves, and the third minister did not know. King Yue has made great contributions to the country but does not reward him, and he discusses his crimes, but it is a good thing that he lost his teacher and land, isn't this a strange thing? The fourth of this minister is unknown. There are these four unknowns, so the ministers really dare not agree with Zhang Yushi's nonsense! ”
Lin Zhengcheng is worthy of being a well-educated person who has been cited by the imperial examination, his words are harsh and spicy, his words are well-founded, he cites scriptures, and his words hit the seven inches of Zhang Qi's chapter, and immediately refuted Zhang Qi to the fullest, his face was red, and he didn't know how to refute for a while, so he had to bow his head and kneel down on the main hall, and he didn't even dare to say a word.
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that what Lin Yushi said is reasonable, His Royal Highness the King of Yue won this battle, it is really a feat to raise the prestige of our country, it is really a great achievement, however, although the merit is great, it cannot hide its faults, and it is an indisputable fact to change the military system without authorization, and it is an indisputable fact to mess with my dynasty. Where does the dynasty exist? Therefore, the minister thinks that his merits should be rewarded, and his mistakes should not be indulged, please Your Majesty to be clear. In the silence of the court, Su Miao, who knew that the general situation was a little bad, had to appear in advance, without him, the words of the eldest grandson Wuji gave him a signal, that is, it is almost impossible to take this opportunity to completely defeat Li Zhen, but it is still possible to attack one point, regardless of the rest, but it is still possible to give Li Zhen some medicine, and when he saw that Lin Zhengcheng's edge was too exposed, Su Miao immediately came forward to suppress it, and in one sentence, he led the spearhead to the most critical issue of military reform.
Jiang is old and spicy, this sentence is not wrong at all - Su Miao said that Li Zhen had a great merit, but he bit to death the mistake of changing the military system privately, but this mistake is not light, if there is no sufficient reason, even if he takes the merit of expanding the land for thousands of miles, he can't resist it, this is equivalent to a big crime of rebellion, and the establishment of a military academy by Li Zhen is a prelude to the first and then the prelude, and it has not been discussed by the court, Rao is Lin Zhengcheng can speak well, but he can't say why, he can only kneel on the ground silently, unable to distinguish for Li Zhen.
"Your Majesty, the minister does not agree with Su Shilang's opinion, the minister thinks that the land of Anxi is a land of a hundred battles, not comparable to the mainland, if there is no strong army in a hundred battles to defeat the enemy and win, His Royal Highness the King of Yue's so-called military academy, its intention is just to improve the combat ability of generals at all levels, not as some people think is to buy the heart of the army for their own use, as far as the minister knows, before His Royal Highness the King of Yue went to Anxi, the Anxi army was repeatedly defeated, and could only stick to the city, and had no ability to take the initiative to attack, and His Royal Highness the King of Yue went to Anxi for more than three months, but he was able to sweep the troops south of the Tianshan Mountains, This is all the work of the military academy, how can it be done because of choking and abandoning food? As soon as Su Miao came out, Li Qianhe, the servant of the ministry, had to stand up and explain in a loud voice.
"Otherwise, Li Shilang's words are also wrong, the imperial court has its own system, if each state uses the special situation as an excuse to do its own thing, how can the imperial court control it? The country will not be a country, therefore, no matter what the intention of His Royal Highness the King of Yue is, it cannot be justified, it is really a move to corrupt the dynasty, if it is not dealt with, the prestige of the court will be gone, and the minister implores His Majesty to be clear! As soon as Li Qianhe's voice fell, Su Miao had not yet spoken, and Ye Ling, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, had already strode out of the civil official queue and said loudly.
Although Ye Ling and Su Miao are only the positions of squires, and they can only be regarded as middle-level officials among the high-ranking officials in the court, but these two are the core advisers of the two kings of Wu and Wei, and their status is not comparable to that of Zhang Qi, the former supervisor of the imperial history, and Xiao Long, the squire of the criminal department. Liu Xun and other important ministers immediately stood up and echoed the words of Ye and Su, and the situation immediately took a sharp turn for the worse, and Li Zhen's family, who was already lonely in the court, immediately became even weaker, and there were only a dozen officials who stood up to distinguish Li Zhen, and most of them were middle and low-level officials.
In the face of such an unfavorable situation, Li Qianhe is really a little anxious, although he is the highest-level civil official in Li Zhen's family, but he has never been Li Zhen's henchman, and he doesn't know much about Li Zhen's overall deployment. In the midst of a noise, he said loudly: "Your Majesty, the military system is a military affair, and non-civilian officials can say things, why doesn't Your Majesty ask the generals?" ”
The Tang Dynasty is extremely martial, and most of the civil officials are familiar with military affairs, not those who are powerless in later generations, Li Qianhe's anxious words can be described as overturning a boatload of people with a rod, and the courtiers kneeling in the hall will not do it, everyone is in an uproar, and the reprimands are loud and ......
